Will Tom Hardy Be Hugo Strange In 'The Dark Knight Rises?'

Rumors are coming in that Tom Hardy may play the villain Hugo Strange in Christoper Nolan's third outing 'The Dark Knight Rises,' they also mentioned that Rachel Weisz and Anne Hathaway are in the running for the lead female role. The source had this to say:

"I’ve heard that Tom Hardy is in fact going to play the villain. My source strongly believes that Hardy is going to be playing Hugo Strange. This is the first bit of information from this person that I’m publishing, however they have been accurate in the past."

"For example, this person told me weeks before the recent Christoper Nolan interview that The Riddler would not be appearing in the film. They also mentioned that Rachel Weisz and Anne Hathaway were in the running for the lead female role a couple of weeks before Deadline posted their list."

Hugo Strange is a psychologist hired to use his skills to help bring in Batman. He eventually figures out Batman's secret identity, but instead of revealing it to the public, he keeps it secret.
